Calgary couple recounts “frightening” encounter with a grizzly bear

From Global News.

A Calgary couple’s anniversary hike took a terrifying turn when they came face-to-face with a grizzly bear on a popular Alberta trail.

Howard Mah and Lori Arnason were walking near Troll Falls when the encounter unfolded — and it was all caught on camera.

“In some respects, it’s kind of like ‘Wow,’” Mah said. “Neither of us had seen a grizzly in real life before.”

The pair slowly backed away from the bear, which ventured onto the trail towards them for roughly 10 minutes — a stretch of time that felt much longer.

As Skyler Peters reports, they’re sharing their story in the hopes everyone exploring the outdoors is prepared.
